The PS3 is currently $199 and not sold at a loss.  PS3 is older and has been in production much longer than WiiU, but it's also a blu-ray player, and WiiU is not vastly superior/more expensive tech.

It may only break even at $199, but a WiiU packaged with a Wiimote/nunchuck instead of the Gamepad would absolutely not hemorrhage money.

yes, it is. making a wii u costs a lot more than a ps3, wheter you like it or not.

Proof?

And why would I like it or dislike it if WiiU cost more to manufacture than a PS3?  Logic tells us that the box itself is not high end, expensive tech.  

I say the Gamepad is what's driving up the cost/causing losses.  I've already provided you with a link in another thread showing what Nintendo charges for a replacement.  While that could be on the high end, where's your proof to the contrary?  I'm still waiting for that evidence.
